Our 1st b-day party experience :(

So my BFF had a birthday party for his son yesterday. I was very nervous it was my lo's first birthday party. Since I didn't know many people there I decided to go late. Got there just in time for the piÃ±ata and cake. My lo was fascinate by the balloons, all he would say was ugh , and clap as he saw the kids pass with there balloons. My lo got nervous when the lights lowered to sing happy birthday, and laid his head on my shoulder. We're sitting and the next thing I know a physical altercation breaks out, and his BM had a knife. I wanted to go talk to her about her actions, mainly because he daughter was screaming and crying.I really thought the whole situation was just plain tacky. The police were called and as I drove home a saw 3 police cars flying in the direction of the party. I still would like to talk to her. Not quite sure what to say seeing that my BFF has explained to me that she doesn't like me. But at the end of the day she put everyone's lives in jeopardy and she needs to think before she reacts. What conversations might you all suggest we have speaking from one parent to another? I don't want to offend her. Or should I stay out of it? tia!

You have EVERY right to be angry that your LO got put into that situation. However, I don't think it is wise to confront the woman. She sounds bat crazy, and you should just cut her from your life completely. I'm not saying cut ties with you BFF, but I wouldn't knowingly walk back into that situation. She could get angry and hurt you or a family member of yours.

Just my opinion...

I'm sorry that you got stuck in such an INSANE situation but I have to ask, where do you live, and how old are these people? This is NOT normal behavior. If I were you, I would avoid this woman, her family, and her friends at all costs!
